Welcome to the I'm Still Fun Podcast.

Fresh from a vacation where I told Jenny that I do not feel refreshed in the least.

Yeah, I mean it wasn't a very long one.

And you guys did like activities, outdoor activities.

We thought you were in nature.

So did you at least feel like you were one with nature?

Yes, a little bit.

I will say this.

I think not taking the Monday off really was a bad choice because it made it feel like I didn't have a full vacation.

And I don't know what it's like where you work.

When I started here, I got ten days of vacation.

And then I think after like I think after the first like two or three years, I did like a contract negotiation, and I think it moved up to fifteen, and then I think three years after that it moved up to twenty.

And then am I like, I think like five or so six years ago, I was able to get them to do twenty two, but they said that was the max they would ever do for me.

So twenty two days.

I think that sounds like a lot to some people, and other people think that's crazy.

It just depends on where you work.

And also we cannot take off more than a week at a time, which honestly I wouldn't want to, I guess, because then I would blow like half my vacation and one vacation.

But it does make it hard, like if I ever wanted to go somewhere like Australia, be kind of pointless to do if you couldn't take a couple.

Of weeks off.

I think, Yeah, but a lot.

Of people, like when we Jenny and I have gone to these influencer events and stuff, people who work for themselves, there's like so mind blown that that's like the amount of vacation you get.

But then like my husband, he thinks that the workplaces that say you have unlimited PTO he thinks is a trap.

Yeah, Like it's because you don't then you don't get rollover.

Then also you you still have to get your work done.

Like he's like it's a trap.

So he doesn't feel like he's like he would rather have a lot of vacation, but like a set of amount than the unlimited that a lot of companies are rowing out that he says benefits the company more than the person, But it looks like it benefits the person more.

Yeah, that makes sense.

I think the thing with us though, at least if you think that like twenty two days is a lot, maybe you get like ten days, but you also work from home and have a flexible schedule in some ways, because like we can't.

We have to physically be in studio every single day that we do not have a vacation.

So it's like, I know that my sister works for a pretty big company, and I feel like she can work really long days and then take that and be like, Okay, well now I'm going to take this day off whatever.

That's just like not how it works for us at all.

The flexibility.

Like my husband could be like, oh, all of our daughter has dance, I'll move some meetings around.

I can leave a little early and start tomorrow earlier.

You obviously you know we can't.

We can't ours, But some people, like you know, look at our jobs as like you work for four hours and you're done.

That must be nice, But it's kind of like saying teachers to teachers, you get summers off.

It's they don't you know what I mean.

Like a lot of teachers have to supplement and work in the summers.

Like a lot of my daughter's school teachers they work in the summer care program, Yeah, because I think that's how they facilitate.

Also, a lot of teachers that I know, they have a lot of meetings in planning and things for the following year that they have to prep for.

So I always get frustrated for teachers when people make the joke like most be nice to have summers off.

I'm like, I think to some degree that is a little bit like probably as nice if they can.

Maybe they have a partner that makes enough where.

They could do that.

I don't know, but I don't think that's realistic for most features to just like completely not work that whole time.

So what was your favorite part of your trip?

Probably as we were driving into a Kadia National Park.

It's beautiful, beautiful scenery everywhere.

We're coming up over a hill and there's a man jogging into the park.

And as we're getting closer and closer to this I don't know, seventy year old man jogging.

I'm like, are those his bud cheeks?

And we're getting closer and closer, like maybe he's a jockstrap or something.

I'm like, no, those are definitely his butt cheeks, and we passed them, so I turned and there's his dick and balls and he's jogging running with tennis shoes, socks and a T shirt and nothing else.

And then he saw this man's dick and ball bouncing.

We all were like what the fuck.

And then we were like we get we get into the parking spot because I'm like, we don't have signal when when you get the National Parks she like pretty much never have single And we get there, we partner next to Jake's brother and everyone they jump out of.

The car jump did you see the guys dick?

Well?

Yeah, and then we're like what the fuck?

Like what happened?

So then everyone's like like speculating did maybe you know?

The theory was did he shit himself?

And like he teted just let his pants go, But that doesn't make any sense either because he wasn't carrying anything.

What happened that this man was on such an aggressive run in a Winnie the Pooh fashion and she's so weird and like, I can't imagine that feels good?

No support, just flopping, chafing, bizarre, and yeah, Jake was like should I be doing that?

Like is that the way to run I'm like, I don't think so.

Yes, I imagine that.

I feel like that would be similar to a girl running without a sports bron Yes.

And that's another thing Jake brought up.

He was like, dude, that would be creepy to me if I came across him on the running trail.

He's like, I cannot imagine like a petite woman, seriously, like you would not laugh, You'd be scared what's gonna happen.

I'd be very scared.

And I was like, that's a really good point.

Like I didn't think about that because I was too busy just cackling it.

The fact that I turned my head back and just yeah, there it is wild.

So while some would say I didn't see a moose on this trip, I argue I did see a moose on this trip.

That's your favorite part.

This is like the first National.

Park I didn't see some sort of like crazy animal though we saw deer.

And then the other group, because we had two cars, saw a really really cool owl.

And then I took the photo and said I was going to share it everwhere and be like this was the coolest thing I saw, you know, But I didn't.

I didn't get to see it myself.

Sadly, we are pretty sure a bear was getting into our trash at night, but I did not get to see the bear either.

But no, it was really cool.

I did the Beehive hike, which I talked about on this and I was proud of myself for doing it because I wasn't gonna go because I was afraid I'd be too scared of the heights.

But I was like everyone says it's hard because it's you just have a fear of heights, not because it's like a super strenuous thing.

And it wasn't like I could see, like this is how I always start a hike the first quarter of a mile.

I'm always like it's very mental for me.

I'll like, you'll start like a little incline, I'm a little winded.

I feel like I'll get in my head like I'm the slowest one in this group?

Am I holding people back?

And I get so I start I start questioning like I shouldn't have done this, Maybe I should turn back every fucking hike I do.

I've done this, And then I'll be like get in my head like no, you fucking got this, you like, go go, And then I get past where now I'm not like gasping for air.

It's kind of like a normal breathing.

I'm sweating, but it's like normal.

And then I'm always like so happy I did it.

But there were like a couple of scary parts because it there really is no support.

The first couple like little things you go up, You're like, oh, if I fall, I'll be fine, But it really is just straight up.

So it's like it's only like a half a mile, but it's.

Straight up and you're climbing and there are rungs and like little narrow bridges and rock sides and stuff.

But so the only scary part really for me is the wrung placement not made for short people, so some of them were like kind of higher up, like it was hard for me to get my leg up, so it made it a little bit scarier, but it was fine.

And I was really happy I did it.

And then like you don't have to go back down like that on your way down, you like go down the other side of the hill.

So it was not bad at all.

Would totally recommend, like it's very doable for people like I don't Jake's mom know, like that would not have been her thing, but I was so proud of Olive.

We did like a three and a.

Half mile hike, completely flat, no incline, but it was around like the Jordan Pond is what it's called, which is very very beautiful.

And when I looked at him, like, there's no way this is only like three and a half miles, it must be like it must stop and bring you back or something, because I base it on how like Harriet or Badama Cosca looks, and this felt like it looked so much bigger around than those, So I don't know what the difference is, but I was so proud of her.

She did the entire thing, and I think that's like a lot for a five year old to do, like three and a half miles, So I was really proud of her.

And we did we always play, or we're not always we've played.

Sorry that's a lie.

One other time as a group we played telestrations.

So I made Laura, Jake's sister in law, my sister in law bring it a packet in her bag because it was so funny, and of course we get it out.

Only two markers work, but we so we only did two pads.

Have you ever played it before?

I have, Yes.

It is endlessly hilarious because there it's kind of like the what's the adult version of Apples to Apples where they're like kind of adult.

Phrases against him.

Yeah, so there are like normal phrases, but they are also adult phrases.

And we had Dylan play it.

Was so he's seventeen.

Yeah, he chose one, and then as soon as he passed it, like people were like, what is this?

What is And then he was like, I don't know.

I thought it would be funny, and I go, you know, you're playing with your grandma, and it's like it hit him like he had not thought about that.

Yeah, it did not.

And he's like, oh, I wish I hadn't chosen that because he knew at the end he'd have to reveal the word he chose that he thought was funny to his grandma.

And Linda's so sweetness.

She's not like you can't something, you can't say things in front of her, but you know, it's like you wouldn't want to in front of your grandma.

But it was so funny.

If you've ever played telestrations, do it with a group.

It is so funny.

We watched our Friday Night Happy Gilmore two.

Oh nice, because I was like, oh, it's out, we should you know, it's the final night.

You're kind of chilling, so uh two hours long, kind of long, but we really liked it.

It's it's Adam Sandler.

He always makes me laugh.

It just doesn't matter.

So it was good, and a Kadia is just great.

The one benefit if you ever go there is it's so much closer to like towns where you'll stay than most national parks because like, unless you stay inside of a national park a lot, like all the ones we've been to, they can be quite a drive from your like the closest city to drive into, like give me like an hour drive to get in, and that really takes up obviously a lot of time in your day just getting into and back home from the park.

So it was like five minutes you would even realize you were already in the park.

And same to Bar Harbor, Like it was just so like our house was like five minutes, four minutes to Bar Harbor, cute downtown East Coast vibes, five minutes to the park, and it was it was great.

It's like a great for like I think like younger kids and families to go check out.

It's definitely not my favorite national park.

It's just hard to compare like something like Glacier, Right, It's it's great.

So anyway, ten and ten recommend for families, and everyone's like, put an itinerary together.

I'm like, I've done that, Oh, might do it.

We'll see.

I used to do more of that, and I'm getting lazier with age with it.

So because it does take a lot of time, I think I'm gonna start charging people for my tenteraries because I spent so much time and money on them, like not money, but like so much time my own time putting them together.

I'm gonna start charging for my iteneraries.

Jenny, as a travel blogger, what do you think about that?

I think that that makes sense because I'm over here giving away all of my ship for free and I just spent so I'm just kidding.

I'm never going to charge many.

Endless hours on my Iceland itinerary.

And I was like, what am I doing?

I because I also spent so much time.

Yeah, but then I actually went and experienced it, and I have so many tips, so I put in all of that and now it's just openly on my website for anyone to use.

And I showed you the girl that I bought.

Yeah, her Paris recommendation list.

It's not an itinerary, although I think you maybe I don't know.

I can't ra if you could use it.

But she breaks it down in really great categories.

And I paid for it just because she goes there frequently and I like her recommendations.

So it was like a one time fee and I have access to it, you know, as long as she keeps it open, and so like, I do think you could do stuff like that at some point.

Yeah, I was thinking about honestly, because I just went up to like the Dulutheria this past weekend.

I've been to the north Shore so many times, and I also have like a north Shore I tinerary in a bunch of things and like tips and stuff.

And I really think that that's the one I need to start putting together that makes the most sense.

Yeah, and that I feel I can be the most detailed, descriptive and honest about things with because I've tried so many different things.

I have done so many different hikes and pretty much if there's coffee somewhere.

I've probably tried it because I love going to coffee shops.

But I do want to go back to the guy.

You saw his bissles and people, so you know you said he was wearing a T shirt at least and then just like nothing on the bottom.

I woke up like that on Sunday morning.

What why?

What happened?

So I, like I said, I went up to Duluth this past weekend and I went to this beach rave on Saturday night that my friend who lives in Duluth told me about.

She's like, I'm going to this whatever, And do you think it a permit for that?

How does that work?

I mean, I don't think anything about it was legal.

Well I know what there was like a stage and stuff, and you would think like, yeah, like how do you get away.

With They only do it once a year, okay?

And so happened to be there.

Yes, I was super hyped about that.

It's word of mouth in the sense that like it sticks around that group of friends because of course they don't want under age kids there and stuff.

And my friend's twenty eight.

So I go to that and I know as soon as I'm starting to get buzzed and drunk.

I'm kind of like I'm going to walk back because my van was parked for the night in like a vicinity a mile away, And so I left and went to the van, and let me tell you the tornado of fucking drunk Johnny one through that van because I woke up with so I wore a swimsuit to it, and I had jean shorts on and this tank top.

Yeah, I woke up with my swimsuit top and tank top still on, but nothing else.

And then I saw this bad.

Like me in college.

Is literally what I used to do in college.

I would take my underwear off on the top bunk and they'd fall on Abby's bunk and bunk below, Like what the fuck?

Yeah?

And then I bought these.

They were like a some more caramel cluster thing you can get from Costco.

Of course that bag was all, yeah, I got me little fingers in that.

You could blame it on a bear, ol al must a bear must have gotten here when I was sleeping.

And because I'm an old lady, I packed snacks with me to take to the rave because I was like, well, what if I get to hungry?

You know, what if my blood sugar gets low.

Well, I didn't eat them at the rave, but I ate them on the walk back, and so there's like the rappers.

There are like these dried sweet potato sticks that you can also kick from Costco, and I had eate those on the way back.

So those wrappers are laying everywhere.

And then I had this like sparkling water thing that was sitting out and I like look around.

I wake up.

It's like four in the morning, and I'm like, oh my god, this is the first.

Time I've been like hammered in my van.

I'm like, well, good thing that like I found a place I can legally wark and like didn't whatever.

So the but the Beach Rave was really fun, minus the fact that I was frantically texting Falent because my friend advited me and she's like come blah blah blah.

I was kind of up in the air if I wanted to.

And then I'm like texting, I'm like, hey, I just parked, I found a spot.

I'm gonna walk.

I'm like a mile away.

She's like, oh my god, yeah, I'm so happy you're coming.

I get there, I can't find her anywhere, like nowhere, I'm walking up and down this beach.

I'm looking in the crowd of people.

The crowd wasn't that big yet.

It was still light out, yeah, and hadn't even set yet, and I'm looking and I can't find her anywhere.

So I just literally And it was also really.

Hot, so I'm just like waiting in the water with like my legs half in drinking wine because I brought bottles of wine in my backpack.

Sure, and I'm not kidding you.

I was alone at that party for twenty minutes till I found my friend.

She Did you ever figure out where she?

Actually?

I have no idea.

She was like a little bit drunk, I think already because she had so she had biked there, but she had pregamed at her place because she doesn't live too far away with her the guy she's seen, and so I think she was a little bit drunk because I offered her.

I was like, hey, I've got a bunch.

Of wine, like you do if you want, and she's like, yeah, I'm trying to pacete myself whatever.

But I think she had already gotten yeah, And so I think she didn't have her phone on her.

Everyone's in the lake swimming like getting out getting back in.

It was so hot up there too, just like it was in the Twin Cities this weekend.

But it was a really good time, and honestly, it was one of those moments that I'll just think back at for like memorable summers and be like, remember that time I went to a random beach rave and now.

Did you feel like you were in the right age zone to be at this party?

No?

Okay, no, fellin.

I felt like I was the audio that you see on TikTok It's like, am I too old here?

And I had it the bitches.

And I did tell my friend that because she's like seven years younger than me, and I was like yeah.

I literally was texting talent telling her I'm like the old lady here, and she's like, oh my god, you're not, and I was like no, but seriously, I am not.

No one would ever be like, yeah, you are either, but I do not think you stuck out.

You don't have an old vibe to you.

But also no one would ever be like, yeah, you are kind of above the age demographic here, you know, And I mean, you know how you feel in a spot like I've been like that before, Like I'm like, oh, I don't belong here well.

And so she and I had gone hiking earlier, and actually Folland knows her too.

We had only just met at that retreat we went to a month ago, so that's the only time I've ever hung out with her.

Her pictures are so beautiful because she lives up in like she lived the luth area, and so she first of all has access to this beautiful scenery, but she'll like go on hikes and stuff, and she is a great photographer, yeah, like I had.

When we got back from that retreat, I shared her stuff with Dylan, my stepson, because he loves taking photos, and I was like, you should look at her stuff.

It's really pretty.

M Yeah, she's super great.

You can follow her.

Her name is Reese Underscore Hickman and Reese's speltr ee Ce.

But we had hiked earlier that day and I was trying to read the room of like is it cool if I come to this beach rave or she just like being kind and I was like, I'll let you know if I want to come, But then she ended up sending me like the pin location on top of it later, and so I was like Okay, I think she does genuinely want me to come.

Yeah, but yes, I definitely felt a.

Little bit old.

There were these guys with a bag of wine in front of me, dancing and they were slapping the shit out of it.

Just like open up, blah blahlah blah.

And I'm like, I'm like, oh, what's my end to like talk to these guys when I feel like an old bitch here?

And then I was like, you guys, I'm gonna like take a video the next SI do this because it's so mine and my cat still on.

Yeah, yeah, but let me show you a video I did find on my own.

This was when I was getting drunk and I was like, h that's funny.

And I pretty much left like shortly after that had happened.

So I have this video of these guys.

Oh my god, it's like, do you guys like.

Sunglasses on a dark beach and vibe?

They're like I have their middle fingers up pumping them in the air, and wow, I was hanging out with straight douche bag.

That was the moment.

Maybe I took my drunk ass home, yes, my van and because clearly I was intoxicated, but I have to tell you one other crazy thing that happened.

I feel like I was a part of a ritual I should not have been a part of.

On Friday, UK, So I go camp at this spot that's right off of Lake Superior, and I do wild camping, so I'm not at a campground or anything like that.

It's like free camping that you can legally camp at.

And I kind of hear.

Some like commotion outside and I look and there's just like a family of all ages whenever they're walking around, and then I see one of them holding an urn and I was like, oh no, And then I realized I see grandma, And I was like, I think Grandpa's in the urn and they're about to sprinkle his ashes.

So I am like in my van kind of I've got my window the back of the van facing out two Lake Superior, where they're like right below me, and they're ripping ass right below me.

But I feel like they were looking around to make sure nobod could see, cause I don't know if that's like illegal or not usually.

Places now, right, I know.

And so I'm like creepily like looking through my van window and I'm sure they don't see me.

Creeping out, and then they went down a little bit.

Someone's recording on their phone, someone's helping Grandma over the rocks, because there's just.

Like all these rocks that get in to a different area.

And then I literally see them dump.

Yeah.

Yeah, So I think who was Grandpa into the lake?

And so I'm like, okay, whatever you do you And so then I'm just like chilling.

I hear them kind of like go back to their cars.

Next thing I know, I fucking hear fireworks going off, and I.

Look out my window and they're shooting off all these like I would find a spot where someone's spreading Grandpa as a fireworks show.

He lovedake Superior and he loved fireworks.

That's that's what it was.

So that's funny.

And where would you want your ashes spread if they were spread, Jenny, that's a really good question.

Okay, true, a pile of cheese kurds or that's a good choice.

But no, I wouldn't want to.

I wouldn't want to be associated with Greece in the afterlife because that would that mean I'd probably just be.

Bloated all the time.

If I just got the cheese curts into me, I would probably want them to be spread into my mom's pool.

Your poor mom.

I loved it so much growing up.

I was a little fish.

If I'm ever home in the summer, which truthfully, I'm usually not home in the summer because I'm so busy, I spend all I can, all the time I can in that pool.

I know that that is a family thing too, because your sister posted recently that your niece Maddie basically requests together every single day.

She'd posted a picture of was like, this is day three in a row, and I was like, how cool would it be to have a grandma that has a pool.

Jake's dream He's decided.

I think I told you this.

He wants to put a pool in at our house.

Okay on the hill side.

Yeah, He's did a full He had chat gpt design it, which I know, bad usage of chat GPT, I'm sorry, but he did, and he's desperate for it.

And I go bro on our hill.

They would have to remove some trees, they would probably have to put some type of retention wall or whatever they're called in because it's the hill.

That's just the start of it.

I know nothing about pools, but in my mind there's no way that isn't a what two hundred thousand dollars product, don't you think?

Oh?

Absolutely, two fifty yes, because you guys would have to do so much like cementing to probably get levels at some point.

And then the pool.

We don't use that yard.

At all, which we don't.

We never use that part of the yard because it's like why yeah, and we don't have The funny thing.

Is we have a lot of property, like we have like two acres, but we don't have we don't.

It's not like usable because half of it's a hill, so we don't use the hill, and then the other half is like trees and woods, which sure we could clear it and push that back a little bit, but I like, I hate.

It it on trees.

So it's not that I'm completely against it.

But every single person get a pool.

Yeah, it's you'll be the house that everyone comes to.

It'll be so your kids will love it like it's and I'm always like, bro, that's what you told me about the boat, And I finally settled on the boat, which was a much cheaper investment than the pool.

So that's his new thing.

He's like, coo, well, we can get all we can get like a loan out.

We can get it.

It'll be fine.

I'm like, m yeah, it's just yeah, let's add something to the list of things with to pay for to winter eyes, get it ready for the summer, just like constant upkeep, Like, yeah, cleaning it.

Winter is in a pool isn't as hard and difficult as obviously other things are.

But I I'm all for a pool because I did not grow up going into lakes, so I'm much more of a I want to jump into a pool girl than jump into a murky well yeah, house lake.

You know, agreed, I'd rather be in a pool.

But where would you have your ashes spread?

I don't know the answer to that.

What if you could divvy it up and at least ten percent could be spread at this place?

Where would it be?

Maybe Lake Tahoe, But that also seems like it's not like I've spent so much time there.

I think it's so beautiful and peaceful.

Yeah, so I don't know.

I always thought I would be someone who would be buried in a casket, but I.

Think I might have.

Like when Jake and I did like our power of attorney kind of thing, was before we had all of us.

We need to update that.

I think we I was surprised he chose cremation for his choice, and then I don't know what I ended up choosing.

Really don't remember.

Mm mmmm oh yeah.

I definitely feel like I plan on being cremated.

I think it bothered me when he put that on there, like I was taken aback because nobody I knew was cremated, Like everyone is buried in a casket in Indiana and so not in Indian in total, like any funeral I'd ever been to a family and friends always casket.

And so I was like really shocked by that, and I was like, I don't know about this.

And then as I've gotten older, I think I'm more open to that idea for saving my family money do I.

I don't need a cat.

I don't need all that stuff, you.

Know what I mean.

So I it just seems like a big to do for no for no reason, for my personal thoughts.

So and also I do as I've said, if I go first, Jake does need to keep my urn with a photo of me facing forward at his bedside table.

For life, even if he gets remarried.

Yes, he's allowed to get remarried if he.

If he needs to Jenny and he'll be so hard.

That's what he said, and that it'll be.

But if he does, he and his wife have to have that next to the bedside.

I think that that's only fair.

Thank you.

You guys took a vow we did even till dust to us apart.

I'm sure is in the vow.

But it doesn't matter that until death than to infinity.

And that's right, and that is what that is what it should be profound exactly.

I saw this trend where you go on TikTok and you put a photo in and it randomly selects a song to fit the photo.

So I'm going to put a photo that's not it of you and me and see what song last for us.

I'm gonna do the one from the Retreat of Just You and I.

Yeah, okay, let's see what song it chooses.

It thinks we're in love.

It's Taylor Swift Daylight.

It's makes sense.

I know you love me.

It thinks that we are w l W and that is fine because we are.

You know what.

Daylight is one of my top favorite Taylor Swift songs too.

I don't really know that one.

But honestly, TikTok's always right.

It's always right.

They knew that we were in love.

They do.

They could read through our body language in that photo.

Yes, even though I don't think we were super close in it, but they knew.

Were you by the way?

Uh impressed with my balancing skill on my top of the tater can?

Yes, I was.

I even like talked about it with everyone on the morning show this morning.

But someone did reveal something I don't know if I can say it on here.

I had a can in there, okay because in comic did you well, I didn't read the comment.

It physically would be impossible.

I was like, how the fuck did she do that?

Without?

Well, that's not like a secret though, like you no, I still but I.

Just haven't been on top of that trend, and yours was the first one I saw that wasn't like a solid like I've seen.

I saw someone do it on a weight at a gym and I'm like, oh, that's cool.

And then you did top of the tATu and I was like, she lovetating.

Yeah.

I know a lot of people that I've seen they're doing it on top of like some kind of soda can or something, and then some of them are balanced.

I don't know how the they're doing it on top of a weight with a soda can on top of it.

I did see one person was able to green screen it, but no, I just took the top of the tater stuff out of the container.

I was never because it would literally squish it right and then it would be cream everywhere.

So I put a soup cannon.

I was never going to like try to pretend like my body weight would so anyway, I didn't think that was like a spoiler because I'm still balancing on it, which is the trend more so than right with an anyway, So I put like just a soup can or maybe it was like a corn can.

I can't remember.

Yeah, and it was a can, but it was so hard to balance.

If you haven't seen it, it's like the Nicki Minaj challenge, and most women do it in high heels.

But I wanted to make it Minnesota.

So I did red wing boots and atop the tater container.

And the very first one I did Jake.

The very first one, Jake got halfway around me and I was like, I'm gonna fall.

Then I it was so hot yesterday and our deck is like that composite wood, so it kind of is slippery.

So I started getting like stressed out, sweating, shaky, and Jake's like, I think you need to take a five minute break, because we tried like four of them, and I was like, I couldn't even like last and he's like, I think you need like a five minute break.

So I went inside cooled off for five minutes.

I was like, I think I need to put it on like a rug because it's sliding and it's making me nervous and I'm gonna snap my ankle because I have bad ankles.

So I put like a.

Little tiny rug down so there would actually be some traction.

Did not help very much, but I was able to hold it enough for him to get all the way around me, and then I lost my balance.

But my pilates instructor she was like, I'd like to think that this has a lot to do with pilates, and I was like, I honestly think it probably did, because it's a lot of balance and it also is like core strength.

So I made Jake try it just on the floor, and he could not, for the life of him, even do it on the floor.

Yeah, so it made me feel bad.

When I can do things that Jake can't, it makes me feel excited.

It is a good feeling.

I feel that I'm honestly kind of surprised we've gotten this far through the podcast and you haven't broughten up the real that I did over the weekend of me and the Cambrian.

I'm trying to let you live your life, but I swear to god, those pink shorts are fucking insane.

What do you mean they are not shorts?

They are No, they're not, They're you.

Your vagina has been starving lately.

It is clear you've told me your horny, but your vagina is screaming.

It is eating those little fucking pink shorts, and you have got to stop.

I can't.

They're very comfortable, and I brushing my teeth.

What teeth?

What teeth?

All I see is a pizza slice down below?

Okay, Okay, Honestly, I was happy as I'm like editing together this real and I'm like, okay, there's only a couple shots.

Yes, I remember maybe a little bit of a pizza slice in view.

Most of it was kind of like sign angle shots or like my ass or something, which I'm fine with all that, but I did think, I'm like, I didn't pack much this weekend because we.

Can tell very minimal clothing.

I need to pack much because a it was gonna be five billion degrees out and.

Room and the huge camper van to pack a full pair of.

Sho Life is much easier when you literally have three options to choose from.

So yeah, I didn't pack anything.

Also, my favorite, by the way, she had texted me I didn't see it in time, like should I post this photo of him in a bikini?

And I was like, yeah, fuck, yeah you should.

But she was like had before I'd even responded, She's like done too late or whatever.

But we both laughed because our favorite part of the picture was just the people commenting being like foall and what color is like hat or whatever.

It was the comment to like I'm waiting for Fallon's like pervert.

I'm like, I'm glad that I am the pervert stalker.

On where you always have those funny comments, and I think the first comment that came in was like trying to be fall into the comment section or something.

But let me talk you about my pizza slice on the way home.

Yeah, what about that?

So I my air.

Conditioning doesn't work in the back, and I think I have to do I don't think it's broken or it doesn't work.

I think I have to put some cool and dinner or some shit like that freeze on on whatever.

I don't know.

I'm learning a lot about this van as I'm having to take care of it on my own and I am driving and I just have the windows open.

It's fucking ninety degrees and humid as shit out and so sunny.

And I wore the sun dress on the way home because I literally had sweat through all of my other comfy clothes, but that sundress was like a cottony kind of heavier material.

I was sweating so much I literally put it.

You know, like when you'd take your shirt as a little kid, and you'd put it up and through like it was a bra.

I was pretty much doing that with my sundress.

Riding with a thong on in my van, I was sweating into the very.

Whatever material it is in my van.

It's not leather, obviously, it's whatever.

I'm sweating into that we get to a standstill in the traffic and I am just so miserable, and also I'm on the side where the sun is beating down on me and I.

Have to have The one was open yesterday was brutal.

Anyway, I guess it was so bad.

I had left like kind of early from Duluth because I was like, I'm not hiking today, like I was maybe gonna do one more hike, but it was just hot and I hadn't been showering and I felt so gross.

But on the way, I was like, oh, I saw the sign for Cloque, if that's how you say it.

And I had always heard about Gordie's high hat, and I was like, I should go.

I have nothing else going on today, and so I get there, but it doesn't open for like twenty five minutes, so I'm just waiting around, and then didn't realize there was a line out the door already when they opened, because it's how popular it is.

So I'm waiting in my van until it's ten on the dot.

And so I would have been home earlier and beaten some of that like heat, but I didn't.

I was so happy to get home and shower, and then I remembered there's a lot of things been piling up my shower head broke and was like completely off the shower when I get home, and I'm like, that's right, it's just a fountain of water coming down.

Forgot about that, Yeah, and then I also kind of forget that I do have another shower in my basement where I needed something with a shower had, but I just to use that because I wanted to use my main shower.

Yeah.

But yeah, last week, a lot of shit piled up on me and I just started feeling the stress.

And then when the van wouldn't start.

If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw that on my stories, I had a breakdown and I just started crying because I it's been exhausting taking care of a house by myself.

I think I've said this on the podcast, and just a handful of other things I've taken on that I should have said no to, but I didn't.

And so I was very upset about the van and then fallen basically immediately facetimes me on her vacation.

Mind you, after she sees my story and throws her brother in law and he's like, let me see, and they're like telling me what to do.

Jake was so mad because he hates when Davey gets credit and Jake's like, I I was the one that it was the battery first, and like he just gets so competitive because Davy knows more about cars, but Jake is, he's learning and he does know he I don't give him enough credit.

So he was just like, tell her if you if it's right, tell her I said it first, and I'm like, yeah, I'll make sure she knows.

Yeah, yeah, but I did get the battery fixed with the help of my wonderful neighbor Tom, and I immediately, I know, seriously, I immediately baked chocolate chip cookies for him and brought them over and left it on their porch for the evening because I was nice.

I would not have been able to go on that trip this weekend if it wasn't for him and his help.

I mostly needed the tools, but I honestly don't know that I would have been able to figure it out without his help on top of it, so he was sweet, and yeah, I am so happy I got to go this past weekend because it was my only free weekend this summer to get out in the mad Yeah, well that's awesome.

I'm glad you had a good weekend.

Thanks.

We're back at it so a little bit, a little bit over time today.

Oh yeah, that's okay.

Chatty did well, we all did, but we appreciate you listening as always.

Have an awesome week and talk to you soon.
